12-21 Ahmad ibn al-Hassan al-Qat’tan narrated that Abdul Rahman ibn Abi Hatam quoted Abu Sa’id al-Ashj, on the authority of Ibrahim ibn Muhammad ibn Malik ibn Zayd al-Hamedany, on the authority of Zyad ibn Alaqa and Abdul Malik ibn Umayr, on the authority of Jabir ibn Samurah, “My father and I were with the Prophet (MGB).
I heard the Prophet (MGB) say, ‘There will be twelve Leaders after me.’ Then the Prophet (MGB) lowered his voice. I asked my father, ‘What did he (MGB) say when he lowered his voice?’ My father said, ‘The Prophet (MGB) said, ‘They are all from the Quraysh.’”

سمعت زياد بن علاقة، وعبدالملك بن عمير يحدثان، عن جابر بن سمرة قال: كنت مع أبي عند النبي صلى الله عليه وآله فسمعته يقول: يكون بعدي اثنا عشر أميرا. ثم أخفى صوته، فسألت أبي فقال: قال: كلهم من قريش
